How It Works
Bibby has a specialist team, including quantity surveyors, that are able to assess the complex contracts that are common place within the sector. This enables them to value the contract and set an appropriate funding level.
As you raise sales invoices or applications for payment, a prepayment percentage is released against each transaction. This prepayment will typically be set between 40% and 80%.
Funding can be offered to companies within the sector, against:
- Staged billing.
- Contractual debt.
- Certified applications for payment.
- Uncertified applications for payment.
- Final accounts.
- Single debtor situations.
